Equipment

  • Sturdy pot

Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 400 g Ground beef browned
  • 400 g Crushed tomatoes
  • 200 ml Cream
  • 250 g Pasta short, sturdy type
  • 15 ml Olive oil for cooking
  • 1 tsp Salt to taste
  • 1 tsp Black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Start by heating your sturdy pot over medium heat and browning the beef until it’s well-seasoned and just cooked through.
  • Don’t rush the browning—the tasty bits left at the bottom are key for flavor, so deglaze with a bit of liquid.
  • Then add in crushed tomatoes and seasoning to create a tangy base. Let simmer to meld flavors.
  • Stir in the cream toward the end for a rich finish, then toss the pasta right into the pot.
  • Add enough liquid to let the pasta finish cooking in the sauce, stirring as needed so nothing sticks.
  • When the pasta is al dente and the sauce coats each strand, taste and adjust salt and pepper.

Notes

Tip: Keep the heat medium to prevent the sauce from breaking and to cook the pasta properly. Small adjustments can elevate the dish.
